What is the big deal
Hi
I dont' believe I posted here yet, but with this note, I had too.
Expensive sewing machines have their place. I have several antique machines that I LOVE better than my viking. I do like my viking, but alas, also love my oldies but goodies. Beautiful quilts come from all different sources. Look to the antiques where no machines were used. You don't need a $2500..00 sewing machine to make beautiful things. Just skill. I learned to hand piece and quilt before using a machine. I love the process and the satisfaction of a job well done by any means. Use your machine and love the process. That is what is important and you can not go wrong. Your equipment is just part of the process. Enjoy it all. Don't let others diswade you from your goal. Be creative and have fun.
